The Useless Heiress Is Actually A Bigshot

Chapter 100: Chapter 100 Purpose@@novelbin@@

On the other side, within hell—

After returning to hell, Black Impermanence brought Chen Wanwan to Yama Hall.

Standing inside Yama Hall, Chen Wanwan was shivering with fear. Or rather, no ghost standing here could remain calm. Whether a good person or a bad one in life, everyone would subconsciously feel terror here.

Black Impermanence didn’t pay too much attention to Chen Wanwan. Once he entered the hall, he immediately reported to King Yan the requests Zhong Niangyao had made that day.

Beside him, Chen Wanwan shivered while waiting, just like a prisoner awaiting sentencing.

Not until King Yan uttered the words “It’s granted” did her heart finally settle down.

At the same time, her heart was filled with gratitude towards Zhong Niangyao. Because if it hadn’t been for Zhong Niangyao, she would never have known the truth, let alone have the chance to continue her relationship with Li Xuan. Now that she had King Yan’s permission, she could be with Li Xuan as husband and wife in the next life.

After Chen Wanwan was taken away, King Yan looked at Black Impermanence standing there and directly asked, “How is she doing now?”

“The lady has arrived in this era not long ago, but she has adapted well,” Black Impermanence reported truthfully, “However, my lord, the lady’s memory—”

“There’s no rush,” King Yan shook his head and then sighed, “Who would have thought, back then, that the result would turn out like this!”

“My lord, regarding the Lord above, should we—” Black Impermanence hesitated.

“These matters are beyond our control now,” King Yan shook his head and then instructed, “From now on, if the lady needs any help, you can just do it. There’s no need to report back to me.”

Black Impermanence bowed respectfully, “Your subordinate understands.”

After Zhong Niangyao had delivered her mounted ink painting to the school, she immediately asked the school for leave.

On the tenth, she promptly got into Lu Yichen’s car and set off for X City.

In the car—

Zhong Niangyao, sitting in the back seat and looking at Lu Yichen beside her, glanced at the driver in front and a middle-aged man called Uncle Wang, and couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.

She felt that agreeing to go tomb exploration with Lu Yichen this time was really uncertain as to whether it was right or wrong! However, she really had no way to give up the turtle shell she had once used. Moreover, that was a hereditary treasure of their Ghost Valley Master sect.

Of course, it wasn’t just a few of them going into the tomb this time; there were a few others in the cars behind.

Nevertheless, she was very curious about Lu Yichen’s purpose in exploring the tomb. Or rather, she was somewhat curious about Lu Yichen himself.

Clearly a scion of the Lu Family, even if he was different from his brothers, he still came from the Lu Family, dressed in silk and brocade, lacking neither wealth nor honor—so why would he think of exploring tombs?

Moreover, Lu Yichen was definitely not as simple as he appeared on the surface. Or rather, within the Lu Family, the one who hid the deepest might well be him.

Just by looking at the people around him, one could tell that he was certainly no ordinary person. She was just curious, why did Lu Yichen choose to hide himself like this within the Lu Family?

“How come, Lady Zhong, are you very interested in me?” Lu Yichen turned his head, catching Zhong Niangyao’s lingering gaze, “Constantly watching me like this, it could easily lead to misunderstandings.”

“Yes!”

Unexpectedly, Zhong Niangyao nodded in agreement without a single moment of hesitation.

Lu Yichen was momentarily stunned but quickly recovered, nodding his head while still maintaining a gentlemanly demeanor, “To have caught Lady Zhong’s interest is truly my honor!”

“No honor.” Zhong Niangyao shook her head, “Even though I’m interested in you, I don’t like you. I’m just curious to what extent a person can truly hide themselves!”

“I’m a straightforward person, so I don’t like those with deep and complicated thoughts. Being with such people often means you have to guess their intentions, and that, for me, is probably a bit too difficult. That’s why I prefer simpler people.”

Lu Yichen’s expression remained unchanged, but there seemed to be an inscrutable storm brewing in his eyes, “Then it seems that Lady Zhong’s taste is indeed quite unique!”

“I don’t think it’s anything special.” Zhong Niangyao continued firmly, staring into Lu Yichen’s eyes, “However, Third Young Master Lu, I am indeed very curious about you and would really like to know, what exactly is your purpose for exploring the tomb this time.”

Up to this point, she still didn’t know what Lu Yichen’s purpose in exploring the tomb was. It surely couldn’t just be curiosity, wanting to go down and take a look!

And now that things had progressed to this stage, and they were en route to their destination, she felt she should really clarify what Lu Yichen’s intention was.

Lu Yichen withdrew his gaze, then leaned back in the seat, speaking faintly, “There’s something in that tomb that I need, so I had to make this trip.”

Zhong Niangyao understood and didn’t continue to inquire further. What exactly Lu Yichen wanted would be clear in time, and there was no need to dig deeper now.

After all, she and Lu Yichen were not exactly familiar with one another.

Inside the school—

The national calligraphy and painting competition was about to close, and everyone who planned to participate had already submitted their work to the school for the school to submit to the committee.

Students from other schools, after submitting their entries, would have to go through preliminary and semi-final rounds before entering the finals and reaching the hands of the judges. Many works would be eliminated in this process.

However, Tenglong Academy was different—the participants’ works would be sent directly to the committee for the finals, skipping many of the tedious procedures.

This was a privilege of Tenglong Academy, which other schools did not have. As is well known, Tenglong Academy’s educational level is very high, and most of its students have been receiving family education since they were young. Their standards are certainly much higher than the average person’s.

And for specially recruited students, if their abilities didn’t measure up, they couldn’t have been recruited in the first place.

After entering Tenglong Academy, there are many privileges. This is also why many ordinary people are eager to enter Tenglong Academy.

Once in, not only could they receive a better education and meet more upper-class connections, but also they would have various privileges that others outside could not enjoy. All these advantages would be sufficient for them to have a much more brilliant future.
